It's all going along good here. Haven't done much but we're just polishing up on our stuff, making it sound a lot better. Cos even some of the songs that we've "fixed up" don't sound that great.
Also I keep thinking of real cool openings- I've got about five so far! I think I need to write a few songs to go with them.
So right now we've got a handful of well-polished songs we just need somewhere to play them.
Man I'm busy. Or I would be if I got around to doing all the stuff which I need to. I just like procrastinating.
But I've been thinking (sometimes not such a good idea!).
At time's life seems a bit pointless. Now I'm not trying to sound suicidal here, but it seems like you enter this world, then you work to survive, and try to get above it all, get away from your problems. Then you leave this world. Taking nothing.
It's not pointless though. Sometime's it's boring but never pointless. We have a time limit on this earth and it's what we do with it which counts. We're here to help each other. Not to just get by.
That's what we were created for.
Lets get out there and do it!

Stars
Lastnite me and Beka and Jords went outside in the dark and did sparklers. Then Beka got a "massive bruise" by kicking something unknown. So we sat on the tramp and looked at the stars which were really pretty.

In the dark....
Woah! I'm writing this whole blog with the computer screen off! So if I make any spelling mistakes its not my fault, k?...... Well I guess it is, actually.

Well today we went to the Dempsters and had the randomest time ever.Then we came home and painted Beka's new room. If you ask me I'm sick of painting. But I can't really do anything about that.
And as soon when it gets dark me and Beka and Jords are going to go outside and play with sparklers and take pictures.
So we're waiting for it to get dark right now.

Boredom
Sometimes I really think life is so boring.
This morning I was pretty bored.
And guess what? Now that I'm not bored any more, I've thought up about five things I could of done while I was bored.
But I didn't do any of them.
I hate that.
When you're bored you seem to never be able to think of what to do.
It's annoying.
What I wish I had was a recording device. Cos then we could record all our songs and it'd be fun to muck around on.
But I don't have one of them.
So I'll just have to think of something else.

Writer's block
Just when you want to write something, all the words disappear from your head.
When you're living as usual, sometime's at the randomest moments you get this sentence, phrase, verse or idea in your head and you have to go and write it down before you forget it.
It's so unreliable and that's the beuty of it.
You can't force a song to happen, it just has to happen.
Otherwise it dosn't work.
Sometime's I wonder where all the ideas come from. Mum reckons they all come from God. I reckon she's right. Some of them just seem so good, so absolutly amazing that you can't really believe we thought of that ourselves.
So at the moment I'm really wanting to write another song for our side project Ground Zero (we havn't had a practice for ages and we're supposed to go to Fuse next year-ARGH!)
but as I've said, I can't think of anthing.
I guess I'll have to wait and see what happens.
That's the only way to do it.
Maybe I'm to distracted. When we went on a ski trip the first time this year I was quite bored on the way back so I had time to think. But the second time round the radio was on full bore on a boring as programme, and it was so annoying me that I couldn't write a scrap. So I just gave up.
I think I must have writer's block.
I still manage to write my blog fine though.

One-wheelers
We've had quite a good couple of days. Yesterday we finally thought of something we could do for Around (but then got completely off the subject when Dad came inside and wanted Nate to play something.) Then today we were practicing our new song and my guitar teacher thought it was real good.
Apart from that though we haven't been up to much at all.
Yesterday we went on quite a few photoshoots with Beka, it was pretty cool. I still haven't seen the pictures though.
And today we mostly spent outside mucking around. We built this cool bike ramp and went up it at top speed on Josh's little bmx and it was real cool. Except I'm to big for it and when I did it the first time I ended up accidentally landing on the back wheel so I was doing a one-wheeler.
Then I fell over.
So I decided that I better not for my saftey.
Anyway that's completly off topic. Whatever the topic is.

my "early" night
So........havn't been up to much lately except we tried to try another song today. Didn't work so well (didn't work at all actually)
Anyway I was hoping I could write one of those deep and meaningful blogs or even a real random one but Mum was on here and now it's 10. 41 and I was planning to have an early night.
So much for that.
We went on a bit of a photoshoot tonight it was pretty cool. Though I was mostly txting through it and for once Nate was taking all the pictures.
Anyway I better head off to bed cos I'm supposed to be waking up at 6 tomorrow for another photoshoot!
My goodness.
Also I have some very sad news. I was looking up a few bands on Sunday and I found out that My Life Story have decided to call it a day and have disbanded.
I was quite gutted about that.

folding papers comes after writing blogs..
I really should be folding the papers but I feel like writing the blog. And besides I just painted the laundry with Mum for an hour. Then I had a shower. And now its 8:00! You know that saying 'time flys when you're having fun'? I reckon its not about time speeding up, but about having so much fun that you forget the time. Because time does'nt speed up. I actually rcckon it does. Very slowly though. Like, half a second every year or around that. This year shot by so quick you can hardly remember it. Woah.. think about that one. I'm going to be up for a while wondering how time can shoot by so quick that you can't remember it. Confusing. Anyway, the moral is time doesn't speed up....... - its just your imagination. And thats about it.
